- Hey, guys.
It's Natasha of natashaskitchen.com.
Today I'm going to teach you how to make
the most beautiful frosting roses.
You'll be amazed at how easy these are.
I always take these to parties
and people are always like, wow, those gorgeous,
and how do you make them?
Nobody ever seems to know how to make them.
But they're so simple.
We're going to use my famous vanilla cupcake frosting
and my moist chocolate cupcakes.
And together, oh my gosh, these are so good.
So stay tuned.
You'll be a pro in no time.
The most important thing about
getting these frosting roses right
is making sure you have the right tools.
I use the Wilton 2D tip
and then just any large pastry bag will work.
So I have my frosting tip put in my pastry bag.
And what I like to do is set it into a tall glass,
and this really helps when you're filling it up
with frosting.
So go ahead and fill it about half full with frosting.
Prime your pastry bag so that the frosting goes to the end.
You should see it come out at the end.
And sometimes with the first few roses,
you might get some air bubbles.
So it's really important to go ahead and practice
on either a baking sheet or a plate.
So that's what we're gonna do.
We're gonna practice.
This is an especially good idea
if you're not comfortable with doing this,
if you're doing it for the first time,
or if you just haven't done it for awhile,
especially for putting it on a cake
'cause you don't want to destroy your cake
with an ugly rose.
Now that we've finished practicing,
let's get started on the real cupcakes.
Start frosting from the center
and just move outwards in a circle
and keep your tip close to the cupcake.
- Thank you for God.
And bless Mama and Dada and David and bless God.
Thank you for God.
Amen.
- And the cupcakes.
- And bless God for making for my cupcake,
being so silly God.
- Amen.
- Amen. - Amen.
There's nothing like having the finished product
and eating it
and sharing it with the ones you love.
This guy loves cupcakes.
Are these your favorite?
- Uh huh. - Yeah.
